From Frustration to Innovation—How Sage Is Changing the Game

A Broken System: My Frustration with Healthcare

I’ve spent over two decades working in healthcare—leading at companies like Metagenics and Fresenius, working at the intersection of functional medicine, nutrition, and cutting-edge health optimization.

During that time, I saw the same problem over and over: The system wasn’t built for prevention.

Even in concierge medicine—where people pay thousands for personalized care—I saw patients overwhelmed with data but lacking a roadmap for long-term health optimization.

So I asked:
What if we could take the best insights from precision medicine and make them accessible to everyone?

Medicine 3.0: The Future of Preventative Healthcare

The healthcare industry has gone through three major phases:

• Medicine 1.0: Pre-20th-century medicine—primitive, symptom-driven, and reactionary.
• Medicine 2.0: The scientific revolution—antibiotics, vaccines, and evidence-based care. This helped people live longer, but it was focused on treating disease, not optimizing health.
• Medicine 3.0: Today’s emerging revolution—precision, personalized healthcare based on prevention, biomarkers, and AI-driven insights.

At Sage, we’re building Medicine 3.0 into a scalable, accessible platform.

What Makes Sage Different?

• Comprehensive, not reactive – We don’t just check for problems; we help you optimize for the long term.
• Clarity over complexity – No more confusing lab reviews or medical jargon—just plain-language, science-backed insights.
• Practical actions, not just data – Every test should come with a roadmap—what can you do today to improve?
• Tracking progress made easy – See trends over time, not just one-time snapshots.
• Empowering both patients and doctors – When patients track their own health, doctors can finally practice real medicine instead of just managing disease.

The Science Behind Longevity Optimization

At Sage, we help you track and optimize the most important longevity biomarkers, including:

• ApoB and LDL Particle Count (superior heart disease risk markers)
• Fasting Insulin and HOMA-IR (early warning signs of metabolic dysfunction)
• CRP and Homocysteine (inflammation markers linked to aging and chronic disease)
• Omega-3 Index and Vitamin D (critical for brain and cardiovascular health)

Tracking these markers over time gives you a true picture of your health—not just a moment-in-time snapshot.

Bridging the Gap Between Science and Action

Most people don’t need more health data—they need a simple way to understand what it means and how to act on it.

That’s what we built Sage to do.

Instead of just reporting numbers, we provide:

• Clear explanations of what each biomarker means
• Simple scoring systems to track progress
• Personalized, science-backed recommendations for improvement

The Future of Healthcare is Proactive, Not Reactive

Doctors and healthcare professionals agree: When patients take ownership of their health, outcomes improve.

That’s why Sage isn’t just for individuals—it’s for doctors too. By making preventative health tracking easier, we enable medical professionals to focus on real, transformative care instead of just reacting to disease.
